Newty82 Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 If City really want money for him, we should contact FIFA because there's no way that should be allowed. Has that been reported by a more reputable paper than the Mirror, Daily Mail or Daily Star? What is a reputable paper?! Ha! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newty82 Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 Everton knew what they were getting into when they signed him so pay up or get out simple as that. Ai. But why Negotiate to pay £2 million if we sign him? That is either inaccurate or a crap idea of a deal. But yeah...We obviously agreed to it so it's a bit naughty to try and wriggle free of it. Unless there has been some wires crossed between the club's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevO Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 Everton knew what they were getting into when they signed him so pay up or get out simple as that. Exactly, it's pretty straight forward. We either paid it last summer or this summer if we take him on after they subsidised us last season. Pay it or leave it, but Barry for £2m is a bargain for me.

Romey 1878 Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 Twitter making it sound like Barry signing is imminent. Very imminent. Great. Fantastic. Over the moon. Now, can we actually get on to adding to the squad? That'd be ace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quinn31 Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 Everton official account announced signing of Gareth Barry on a 3 year deal. Good news, as long as his wages are reasonable (I'm a little skeptical of giving him a three year deal, but I imagine he'll still be useful as a squad player at least by the end of year 3).

Matt Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 Excellent! Not the most exotic signing but Im very happy to have his experience alongside McCarthy http://www.evertonfc.com/news/archive/2014/07/08/barry-signs-for-blues StevO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NyarkosLeftToe Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 Great signing, was easily one of our top 3 players last season Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quinn31 Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 I still think we need to sign at least one more central midfielder given the increased number of games, the injury record of Gibson, and the fact that Osman looked like he was beginning to fade in his ability at some points last season, unless we expect Lundstram, Ledson, or another young player to play a significant role (regular appearances).

Matt Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 Three years is very surprising. Why? 33 going on 36 by the end, possibility of a small fee in a transfer to the US for a swansong. Barrys strength has never been pace, so what else can he lose? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoo Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 (edited) Made up. Whenever McCarthy played without Barry he looked like a rabbit in front of headlights so this signing will aid his development just as much as it'll aid the rest of the team. On a free this is a bargain - woohoo! . Three years is very surprising. Del Piero is 39 and angling for a move to Celtic, I know it's not the same as moving to the Premier League but the saying rings true - ''If you can still do it...''

Matt Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 So right it's taken this long to get done . hes supposedly turned down more lucrative deals for us, Id guess it was pissing about with City thats held things up. Just another point, how well hidden was this despite it being an obvious one? Just makes me think we'll have plenty of others lined up and that we should just keep the faith rather than following the media bullshit...
